This year’s edition of the event in Chiang Mai will see the return of the Awards ceremony dedicated to recognising excellence in route development across Asia Pacific's airlines, airports and destinations.

The move comes as Hong Kong launched a tourism campaign to attract visitors back to the city by giving out a half million free flight tickets.

Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific expects to reach 70% of its 2019 capacity levels by the end of 2023 and 100% by the end of 2024.

Cathay Group CEO Ronald Lam has told employees that post-pandemic, rivals “have emerged leaner, fitter and they are eager to take customers away from us.”

The planned changes coincide with China dropping quarantine requirements for inbound travelers.

Routes details the latest new route announcements, as well as the services returning to carriers’ networks.

The Hong Kong flag carrier has issued its most vociferous call yet for the government to produce a roadmap for the removal of remaining restrictions.

While Hong Kong has eased its COVID-19 entry rules slightly, Cathay Pacific is calling for more significant steps to remove constraints on passengers and air crew.

Airlines are more likely to add frequencies or restart routes as COVID-19 restrictions ease.

Improvements in the outlook for Cathay Pacific have prompted the carrier to cut its projected cash burn and inch closer toward achieving positive cashflow.

Cathay Pacific is launching a corporate sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) program, allowing companies to purchase SAF for their employees’ flights and reducing Scope 3 carbon emissions from business travel or cargo transportation.

While Cathay Pacific’s March statistics continued to reflect its dire predicament, April should see some degree of improvement as Hong Kong eases COVID-19 border restrictions.
